Recovery

There is an LPC dongle with a socketed second BIOS chip in it, it can probably be bought or lent by the company making the card.

GNU/Linux Installation

To install a GNU/Linux distro on the compact flash card without an external reader,and because keyboard is not working in coreboot/SeaBIOS, I compiled coreboot in verbose mode, and put the card in the slot after coreboot said to press F12, and before the linux kernel started. I booted on an ipxe network card and installed parabola.

I could have used sgabios instead and pressed F12, and have booted on an ipxe network card and installed parabola
